g​

Answer 1

Answer:

Oranges brought at 6 for Rs. 10

price of 1 orange=6/10 = 0.6

oranges sold at 4 for Rs. 9

price of 1 orange=4/9 =.44

loss per orange= 0.6-0.44 =0.16

%loss per orange = (0.16/0.6)×100= 26.67%

Answer 2

★$\huge\mathtt\orange{Answer}$

C.P of  6  oranges = Rs. 10

C.P of  1 orange = Rs. 10/6

S.P of 4 oranges = Rs. 9

S.P of  1 orange = Rs. 9/4

Here, we  see Selling Price  is  greater  than  Cost Price.

So, Gain = S.P - C.P

  = 9/4 - 10/6

  = 7/12

Therefore, Gain% = ( Gain / C.P. )  * 100

 = (7/12) / (10/6) * 100 

  = 35%
